15. Trump has the entire US government resources at his disposal.

You are seriously underestimating his power, resources, greed, cruelty and revenge capability as well.

Trump and Musk have all kinds of secret data available to them now.

Trump will use the full weight of the US govt to get what he wants.
And he will start leaning on people if he wants to do so.

How would these rich guys feel if the DOJ, FBI, IRS, CIA start coming after them?

It is going to be hard even for a billionaire to withstand that kind of scrutiny and assault.

It is so ironic that the billionaires got rich in the US because of our rule of law, government protections,
and US courts. Now it will all be used against them.
